Velocity of Sound in Solids Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Velocity of Sound = sqrt(Elasticity/Density)
v_speed = sqrt(E/ρ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Velocity of Sound - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Sound is the speed at which sound waves propagate through a physical medium, such as air, water, or solids, and is a fundamental property in physics and engineering.
Elasticity - (Measured in Pascal) - Elasticity is a measure of how much a material compresses or expands when a force is applied to it, affecting the speed of sound propagation and resonance within the material.
Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density is the measure of how tightly packed the molecules of a substance are, affecting the speed of sound propagation through it, and is an important factor in sound resonance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Elasticity: 2186.52 Megapascal --> 2186520000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Density: 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 997 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v_speed = sqrt(E/ρ) --> sqrt(2186520000/997)

Evaluating ... ...

v_speed = 1480.9116441887

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1480.9116441887 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1480.9116441887 ≈ 1480.912 Meter per Second <-- Velocity of Sound

What is Simple Harmonic Motion?

Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is a type of periodic motion where an object oscillates back and forth around an equilibrium position. The restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from this position and acts towards it. Examples include the motion of a pendulum and a mass-spring system.
